About this book

The National Book Award finalist, Oprah's Book Club pick, #1 New York Times bestseller, and basis for the Oscar-nominated motion picture.

"A page-turner with a beating heart."— Boston Globe

"A mixture of classical tragedy perfectly imbued with film noir.... House of Sand and Fog is the work of a writer who is the real thing."— The Baltimore Sun

A recent immigrant from the Middle East—a former colonel in the Iranian Air Force—yearns to restore his family's dignity in California. A recovering alcoholic and addict down on her luck struggles to hold onto the one thing she has left—her home. And her lover, a married cop, is driven to extremes to win her love.

Andre Dubus III's unforgettable characters—people with ordinary flaws, looking for a small piece of ground to stand on—careen toward inevitable conflict. Their tragedy paints a shockingly true picture of the country we live in today.

"Elegant and powerful.... An unusual and volatile literary thriller."— The Washington Post Book World
" House of Sand and Fog is one of the best American novels I've ever read."—James Lee Burke

"An enthralling tragedy built on a foundation of small misfortunes…. Precisely rendered proof that the road to hell is paved with good intentions."— Kirkus Reviews
